The Chromogranin A (CGA) test is a diagnostic tool used primarily to detect and monitor certain types of neuroendocrine tumors. These tumors, which can occur in various parts of the body such as the intestines, pancreas, and lungs, produce excessive amounts of hormones that can lead to a range of symptoms. The CGA test measures the level of chromogranin A, a protein found in neuroendocrine cells, in the blood. Elevated levels of CGA can indicate the presence of neuroendocrine tumors or other related conditions.

At DNA Labs UAE, the CGA test is available for patients who are either experiencing symptoms that may suggest a neuroendocrine tumor or for those who are already diagnosed and need monitoring of their condition. The test is priced at 1400 AED. DNA Labs UAE is known for its state-of-the-art facilities and highly qualified staff, ensuring accurate and reliable test results. Patients choosing to undergo the CGA test at DNA Labs UAE can expect professional service and comprehensive support throughout the testing process.

The CHROMOGRANIN A (CGA) test is a blood test that measures the levels of chromogranin A in the body. Chromogranin A is a protein that is produced by certain cells, including neuroendocrine cells. These cells are found in various organs, such as the pancreas, adrenal glands, and gastrointestinal tract. The CGA test is primarily used to help diagnose and monitor neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). NETs are rare tumors that can develop in various parts of the body and produce hormones. The test can also be used to monitor the response to treatment and detect any recurrence of the tumor. High levels of chromogranin A in the blood can indicate the presence of a neuroendocrine tumor. However, it is important to note that elevated levels of CGA can also be seen in other conditions, such as chronic kidney disease, heart failure, and certain medications. The CGA test is usually performed on a blood sample taken from a vein in the arm. It is a simple and relatively non-invasive procedure. Results of the test are typically available within a few days. It is important to discuss the results of the CGA test with a healthcare provider, as they can provide further interpretation and guidance based on the individual’s specific situation.
